Clubs Cup 2015

On Friday September 25th, the GSA battled in UofT’s annual Clubs Cup and finished in first place, reclaiming what was lost the previous year! Their first game was at 9:30am where they battled the Croatians, but sadly lost 3-0. However, at 11:30 the GSA played the Korean’s and pulled out a 2-0 win! Finally, they swept out the Nigerians 2-0! Finishing first in the Pool B division, the GSA went on to play in the playoffs. Through amazing teamwork and a lot of support from GSA members on the sidelines they were able to beat OLAS 2-0 in the semi finals! Moving on to the finals the GSA fought hard and was able to bring home the cup with a 2-0 win against their rivals, the Croatians. Congratulations to our champions and thanks to everyone who came out! Let’s bring home the cup again next year!

Clubs Day and Street Fest 2015

On Wednesday, September 9, 2015 and Tuesday, September 15, 2015 your executives set up booths promoting the Greek Students’ Association at both Clubs Day and Street Fest, recruiting members for the 2014/2015 school year!

Clubs Day, which occurs yearly throughout Frosh Week, welcomed over a 100 new members with gyros from our sponsor, Messini’s Authentic Gyros and our newly designed t-shirts, produced by Champion Print Studio.

The University of Toronto Student Union (UTSU) saw the closure St. George Street between Harbord and College Streets for Street Fest! This allowed new and returning students the opportunity to register for any of the incredible clubs here at U of T. We would like to thank our sponsor, Markham Station, who provided delicious souvlakia,  as well as all of those who helped make the day a great success!

We look forward to another amazing year! Make sure to join us this Thursday, September 17th for our annual General Meeting! We are still taking Director nominations until 11:59 p.m. tomorrow evening.

Each year we take 5 Directors; the role of each director is very important as they assist the executive council. If you are interested in becoming an executive in the future, we highly recommend taking on a bigger role a member of the GSA this year. Each director is responsible for certain tasks.

Here is the list of director positions as well as a brief recap of their responsibilities. Note that there is more to these positions.

Director of Social Affairs

  • Responsible for assisting the Vice-President Internal and Vice-President Student Life in planning and promoting events.

Director of Cultural Affairs

  • Responsible for promoting Hellenic culture to our members through events and is responsible for promoting Hellenic culture to the University of Toronto on behalf of the association.

Director of Communications

  • Responsible for assisting the Secretary-General with communicating with the members and assisting the Vice-President Public Relations in maintaining the associations social media outlets and the association’s general website.

First Year Representative

  • Responsible for involving the first years members of the association, promoting the association to first year students, and assisting the executives where needed.

Each year we have a high demand for Director positions. If you do not win, executive’s take on associates as well, who shadow their positions and help the GSA in a similar way that directors do. We are always happy to have more actively involved members.

Please send us your name and the position you wish to run for by Wednesday, September 16 at midnight. Please send all nominations to gsa.stgeorge@utoronto.ca. At our general meeting, you will be asked to stand up and say a few words as to why you think you are best for this position. Preparation ahead of time is not necessary, but recommended. Members will vote the director they feel is most suited for the position.

Good luck to all the candidates!

Attendees enjoyed a three-course meal, and generously tended to the open bar as they danced the night away! Awards were presented to members and individuals on our GSA team, who showed outstanding commitment to the Greek Students’ Association. Razzies were also presented covering a vast array of comedic themes such as: “Most likely to be caught gambro hunting” and “Most likely to become a devoted nikokira”! We hope everyone enjoyed their evening and we look forward to bringing you another year of memories and amazing experiences to colour your university career here at U of T!
